This is a multicentered, double-blind, randomized controlled, surgical trial of 358 women with inadequate symptom relief of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or stress predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) after conservative care.
The Primary Aim is to determine the comparative effectiveness (as defined by "much" or "very much" better on PGI-I) of transurethral bulking agent (TBA) [for 1 or 2 injections in 12 months] vs. single-incision sling (SIS) 12 months after treatment intervention in women with predominant stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
The BASIS trial is a multicentered, double-blind, randomized controlled, surgical trial with two active interventions, 1) a transurethral bulking agent (TBA) or 2) a single-incision sling (SIS). Both interventions are FDA-approved treatment options for urinary incontinence and will be used in line with their approved use. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the interventions. A total of 358 women will be randomized 1:1 to TBA or SIS.
All participants will have data including demographics, medical history, and quality of life assessments as they relate to urinary incontinence collected at baseline. After undergoing treatment (either transurethral bulking agent or single-incision sling), participants will be asked to return to the clinic at 2-4 weeks, 3 months, and 12 months with additional follow-ups at 6 months, 24 months, and 36 months done over the phone.
The primary outcome of the BASIS trial is subjective success measured by PGI-I for TBA vs. SIS at 12 months.
Secondary outcomes include assessments of 1) retreatment rates within 12 months; 2) validated, objective measures of condition improvement through 36 months; 3) objective success at 3 and 12 months as measured by standardized cough stress test; 4) functional outcomes (activity level, perceived recover, sexual function, etc.); 5) quality of life assessments; 6) operative procedure data and adverse events; 7) pain and functional activity, need for sedation and anesthesia, de novo or worsening symptoms; 8) medical resource use (additional medications, procedures, or therapies); and 9) healthy utility measures.

| Change in Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form [ICIQ-SF] score |
The International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF) consists of 3 scorable questions measuring frequency of leakage, volume of leakage, and associated bother with leakage, for a range of scores from 0 (no leakage or bother) to 21 (worst leakage, most bothersome). A fourth question asks which type(s) of leakage are occurring. The ICIQ-SF score is collected at baseline and each follow-up time point up to 36 months according to treatment assignment and as treated. |
